It looks like the default is 'daemon', as you expected. It is changeable
via a ./configure option, but debian doesn't seem to touch it.

Those lines work for me. You could try sharing a minimal example syslog
config that doesn't seem to be working; maybe something's weird with
that? You could also maybe 'strace' tor during startup to see if it
looks like some log-related syscalls are failing. But be careful with
retaining or sharing any such trace, since I assume there can be some
sensitive info in there.
